MY SITUATION:
i bought this from CVS for 50 bucks...i fell in love with it, but after a while, it broke..
well, i FREAKED out, and tried to exchange it for another one..(even though it was used, they were willing to exchange, EXCEPT i did'nt have my receipt)
So i went on amazon, and found it for 15 dollars...i was VERY skeptical at first, and thought it was some kinda of scam, but, i went ahead and bought it anyways deciding that if it WAS A scam, then i would NEVER buy anything cheap ever again online.

GOOD DECISION MADE:
So, i bought it and was VERY happy to see that it IS indeed in its original packaging, everything new, everything worked. It comes with Everything as said in the description

i would use my epilator over a shaver ANYDAY because with an epilator, the hair grows back soft, while on the other hand, using a shaver would cause it to grow back spiky (and who wants that?!)

OUCHNESS:
Yes, using the Epilator may hurt... Read more

I have just purchased this Veet epilator as my first epilator after doing a good deal of research on what epilator to buy, using mostly Amazon reviews, am thrilled with it, and have been motivated to write my first Amazon review because I believe in this product so much and want to spread the joy. This review is intended to help anyone else trying to figure out what epilator to buy (psst...I recommend this one). Please note that since I've just bought this I can't speak to its durability over time, and since this is my first epilator, I cannot compare it to other models. Also, I can't speak about the comfort spray, because I can't be bothered/don't want to use it.

What you need to know about me:
1)Have waxed up until now (maybe 7ish years?)
2)Woman with hirsutism from PCOS
3)This is my first epilator

Purchasing process: TRIED A LESS REVIEWED PRODUCT BECAUSE IT WAS CHEAP
I debated whether to go for an expensive but heavily reviewed... Read more

The color of this unit should not turn off guys who need an epilator. I had previously shaved my chest - while it looked smooth it felt like thick stubble. The result with the Veet was totally smooth skin; no comparison with shaving. The pain is manageable. It is best just to hold the Veet against the skin and just go for it - jump in all the way fast. I had a tendency to pull the unit away when I felt the first "sting" but that just made it seem more painful. When I kept holding it against the skin and kept going, it wasn't bad.

The way it works is really neat and the clean-up is very easy (it is mostly self cleaning as it releases the hairs after pulling them).

I don't know how any product could do the job better. Considering that other epilators go for many times the price of this unit, it is an excellent value. The results exceeded my expectations.
